Break out the heavy artillery! Legendary thrashers Artillery are back with another killer record! Appropriately entitled “X”, this latest platter is the outfit’s 10th (!) album. And these Dutch metallers are showing no signs of letting up. They preserved over personal adversity and Father Time himself. And sounding better than ever! We sat down with axeman/founder Micheal Stutzer and got the scoop on this momentous record. We discussed the writing process without his brother and bandmate Morten (RIP) and shared his current relationship with other Danish legends. “X” is fresh on the racks so…Run! Don’t Walk! and grab a copy! In our “News, Views and Tunes”, we go over the Decibel 200th issue live stream. As well, we discuss the “We’re Not Gonna Take It” lawsuit against an Australian politician and the Pat O’Brien (ex-Cannibal Corpse) verdict. Musically, we crank brand new Artillery and Midnight. Plus cool tunage from Tank, Whiplash, D.R.I., Incantation, Disaster Strikes, Crypts Of Despair and re-introduce DiGregorio (feat. our own Aaron) in our “Indie Spotlight”. Horns Up and Stay Healthy!
